The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst, NJ intends to enter into sole source negotiations with Frequentis of Columbia, MD for the procurement of an Integrated Communication System (ICS) hardware and software solution that provides an interface with the Unmanned Carrier Aviation Mission Control System (UMCS) and audio related data exchange systems aboard the Carrier, such as the Shipboard Air Traffic Control Communications System (SATCC) and the Tactical Variant System (TVS). The ICS system will receive an audio stream from the Air Vehicle Operator audio interface equipment and convert it to Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), for retransmission and reception. This interface software will need to communicate with hardware similar to that found in the Touch Entry Display (TED) in order to interact with the SATCC switch. The SATCC switch is the Navy's system currently utilized for air traffic control on U.S. aircraft carriers and is already deployed on all carriers. The interface messages exchanged between the TED and SATCCs aboard the carrier are proprietary information, the Government does not possess the data rights necessary to support a competitive procurement. The Government intends to award a Firm Fixed Price contract for this requirement under the authority of 10 USC 2304 (c) (1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. All responsible sources are encouraged to submit a proposal in writing that may be used by the Government in determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon the response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Responses must be received within 15 days of publication of this notice. The Point of Contact is Ms. Meryl Czaplinski 2.5.2.5.2, (732) 323-7263..
